Meseret's septoplasty can't wait - please help us cover the bill
A scheduled septoplasty in November is out of reach without help covering $400 of the cost.
🇪🇹 Addis Ababa, Addis Ababa, Ethiopia827 views
Meseret was diagnosed with endometriosis requiring surgery in August. The surgeon at Addis Ababa Community Hospital recommended septoplasty, and She is scheduled for November. The hospital's financial office gave us a written estimate of $530, and after what the public health scheme will pay we're still $400 short.
my daughter has been in and out of Addis Ababa Community Hospital since August. The doctors say endometriosis requiring surgery will get worse without septoplasty. We have emptied our savings and borrowed from relatives, but the estimate of $530 is more than we can find.
While we wait, Meseret struggles with daily life and can't walk without help. Her family has taken turns caring for her, and I've cut my own work hours to be there.
Rehabilitation is expected to take about 12 weeks. During that time Meseret won't be able to walk without help, so the costs keep growing.
The money goes straight to the treatment bills, and I'll share the invoices as they're paid so you can see exactly what your gift did.
Where the $400 goes:
• Pre-operative tests and imaging: $45
• Post-operative medication: $45
• Hospital stay (4 nights): $310
Thanks for being kind about this.
